Website Migration
-
Q: What exactly does website migration mean and what does it entail?
A: The website migration service provided by Best Reseller Hosting is totally free of cost and consists of moving all your web files, databases and e–mails from your present provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We’ll also modify all the configuration settings required for your websites to be completely operational on our innovative cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring just about any site. With years of work experience in the industry, they’re well–versed in the inner workings of our web hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other popular Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made application with lots of custom libraries is as easy as transferring a plain WordPress weblog.

Q: Website migration seems like a lot of work. How much time does it take?
A: There are plenty of variables to think about – the overall amount of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the present workload of our website migration professionals, etc. Yet, we do our best to accomplish all website migrations in a 48–hour time window. Smaller–sized sites are migrated faster – usually in less than 24 hours.
-
Q: My privacy is important to me. What details do you require?
A: We don’t need any sensitive data. We’ll need, though, the login info for your present hosting account as well as the name of the web site that you want to migrate.
-
Q: The login info for my hosting account is delicate. How can I trust you?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a client. We’re devoted to safeguarding the security of the private information collected from the clients. To do that, we employ technical security measures in order to avoid the loss, the misapplication, the modification or the unauthorized leakage of the information under our control. The safety measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial procedures to protect and secure the data that we acquire online. When we request clients to submit financial info (for example, a credit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technique.
-
Q: Will my website be unavailable during the transfer?
A: Your web site will work just like it did before with your former web hosting provider. After we have completed the transfer, your site will be configured to work on our hosting platform and we’ll alert you to preview it. If it is functioning properly, all you will have to do is update the name server resource records associated with your domain. Your web site will be migrated over to us with no downtime.
-
Q: Will my current web hosting provider learn that I’m leaving them?
A: While we migrate your content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We will never touch base with them in any way.
-
Q: Which web hosting platforms do you support?
A: Yup. We support all traditional Linux–driven web hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–powered web hosting platforms, as we don’t provide Windows web hosting services ourselves.Furthermore, we don’t support proprietary web site creation and management user interfaces like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
